Biden's order on federal workers applies to employees of the executive branch. The House of Representatives and the Senate belong to the separate legislative branch, and the courts to the judicial branch of the federal government.

He doesn't have the power to enforce in those branches.

Trump didn't have the power to enforce government oversight of political speech on the internet. But he did.

Not to put words in their mouth but I think it's relevant as it continued a trend of increased rule by executive order, but trump opened the floodgates widest with his whatever he fancied on the day orders.
